How will #GlobalGateway address inequality if it isn't an objective of its projects? ❌ It won't. @CONCORD_Europe research finds that projects fail to recognise inequalities as a primary focus therefore lack clear targets to address them: bit.ly/a-gateway-to-e… EU International Partnerships 🇪🇺

#AssistiveTechnology not only allows people to participate in everyday activities – it also restores independence and dignity. We join the #UnlockTheEveryday campaign on the first #WorldATDay in calling for improved access to #AT UnlockTheEveryday

📢 🇵🇸 We urgently call for an immediate ceasefire and the unconditional release of all civilian hostages and captives. Only a ceasefire can improve the situation for the #Palestinian people and allow humanitarian organizations to deliver desperately needed aid. #CeasefireNow

I've been attending @CONCORD_Europe general assembly for 15 years now. Never has it felt as good as today to find comfort in being with my brilliant NGOs peers from around Europe the day after such depressing EU elections. Our dedication to make a better world remains intact!

⚫ Our colleague Muna was killed, along with her entire family, this Saturday, June 8, in the bombing of her house in the south of Deir Al-Balah. This is the 2nd time that HI has suffered the tragic loss of a member of its staff in #Gaza since October 7. pulse.ly/hp6ne7m2fa

#PRIDE is personal, but it has always also been about collective action for justice. The determination of #LGBTQ+ communities & of allies to ensure inclusion for all people has been core to the advances that have been made in recent decades on human rights and in public health.

My deepest condolences to Justin's family and the @CONCORD_Europe family. What a loss... Justin has been an inspiration to me for many years. I was totally impressed how an eloquent speaker he was, and his availability and guidance to younger generations! You will be remembered

It is unbelievable that Equality has been downgraded from its current position as a standalone portfolio. We urgently ask members of the European Parliament to lead the charge in restoring the position of Commissioner for Equality.
